Chapter 318
She got dressed and then started piecing together the events of last night.
She’d had a drink by the pool handed to her by Samuel, changed her clothes when she returned to her room, then hit the sack. Nothing unusual seemed to have happened in between
She racked her brains but couldn’t figure it out. Had she somehow pinched herself in her sleep?
The dream from last night did have some stuff not suitable for kids.
She rubbed her forehead, thinking she couldn’t just accept drinks from anyone any longer.
With her head aching from the hangover, she laid in bed planning to rest when Carol Miller buzzed her.
“Your phone was off last night. Your father seems to be waking up.”
Hearing this, Maja’s sleepiness vanished instantly, and she sat up.”
“Did a doctor say this?”
“Yes, the doctor tried to reach you last night but couldn’t. Your phone was off all night. If I didn’t know you better, I’d think you were off shacking up with some guy.” Carol had a way of speaking bluntly.
Maja sighed. “I don’t have a guy. My phone had some issues last night. I’m heading to the hospital.”
Carol hung up and looked at Felix Brown, who was still cleaning.
This was a tiny apartment Carol had bought, a place to play poor.
At first, she had complained to Maja that it was smaller than her bathroom at home.
But seeing Felix wiping the narrow dining table, a feeling of happiness bubbled up within her.
“Stop cleaning; it’s already spotless.”
Felix stopped, gathered all the trash in the apartment, dumped it in the big bin around the corner, then returned to the room.
“Carol, are you hungry? Are you working this afternoon?”
Seeing Felix so serious, Carol felt a pang of guilt. She’d been hiding her true identity. How would he react if he found out?
But she was the only daughter of the Miller family. Her father would never allow her to be with a poor man.
Felix was tall and looked a bit cramped in the tiny apartment.
Carol had money and didn’t want to see him suffer like this.
“Felix…”
She called his name, hugging him from behind.
Felix stiffened, then slowly relaxed.
“What’s up?”
Carol’s beautiful face was now smiling at him, “I kinda miss you, do you?”
Because Felix was facing away, she didn’t notice how rigid he became.
“I do too.”
After he spoke, he turned around, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and headed to the bedroom.
The bedroom was small but cozy.
Carol laughed nonstop before she could react; he’d put a blindfold on her.
He took such good care of her that she couldn’t help but get up, “It’s my turn to look after you.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
